- "A magical plant with powerful properties in potions. The finest Shrivelfig specimens are found in Abyssinia."
- — Description in Book of Potions.[src]
The Shrivelfig is a magical plant, the best specimens of which are found in Abyssinia[1]. The flowers of the Shrivelfig grow inside the fruit, both of which are purple in colour[1]. The leaves have medicinal properties, and when skinned the fruit produces a purple liquid with potion-making properties[1]. The ingredient can be purchased at the Apothecary in Diagon Alley for three Galleons[2]
History
1992
In 1992, Pomona Sprout had the second year students prune Shrivelfigs with shears during a Herbology class. When Harry Potter went to dispose of some withered stalks that he had trimmed off his Shrivelfig, he ran into Ernie Macmillan, and afterwards Ernie brought Hannah Abbott to work at the same plant as Harry and Ron Weasley. It was in this lesson Harry and Ron realised there were some spiders heading to the Forbidden Forest.
1993
In 1993, Severus Snape taught his third year Potions students to brew the Shrinking Solution. Draco Malfoy claimed that his injured arm prevented him from tending to his own ingredients, so Snape ordered Harry Potter to peel the required Shrivelfigs for Draco, a task which Harry did as quickly as possible.
